Admitting that he had "no idea" who would win at the hometown date stage, Harrison said: "Going into the finale, I knew."

Harrison refused to reveal any further hints about the winner of the ABC dating show, but suggested that Lowe is "definitely still happy" with the way the show came to an end.

The host also suggested that Lowe's morals and values had a huge impact on the season, saying: "Sean is a really religious guy and a man of high moral fiber, which he got from his family. So that's the way the season went.

"If he would have been a playboy, it would have been a different season. This way it played, but I don't think that everyone can be like that... and that made things interesting and very real."
